About this property

We are pleased to present the exclusive offering of 1674 Morton Ave, a well-located single-family home situated in the highly desirable Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. This exceptional offering represents a rare opportunity to acquire a vacant residential property with significant future development potential in one of Los Angeles' most sought-after and rapidly evolving neighborhoods. Originally configured as a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence, the property offers approximately 944 square feet of living space situated on a substantial 12,737-square-foot lot and is zoned R2, providing an attractive foundation for an owner-user, investor, or developer seeking to create additional value. The residence is well maintained and requires minimal interior renovations, allowing for the opportunity to customize and enhance the home to meet a buyer's specific needs. Additional features include an inviting covered front porch, exterior laundry room, detached barn, and four parking spaces, offering a level of functionality and flexibility rarely found in the area. The property's current vacancy further enhances its appeal, providing a buyer with the flexibility to pursue a variety of ownership and investment strategies. Beyond its existing residential improvements, 1674 Morton Ave presents substantial potential for future expansion and redevelopment. Subject to buyer verification and applicable zoning, permitting, and local approvals, potential opportunities may include expansion of the existing residence, development of additional units, condominium or small-lot development, or construction of new homes. This combination of an existing residence, substantial land component, and multiple potential development avenues provides investors and developers with significant flexibility to create long-term value. Ideally situated in Echo Park, the property benefits from convenient access to Sunset Boulevard, Downtown Los Angeles, Silver Lake, Hollywood, and numerous restaurants, cafes, entertainment venues, and neighborhood amenities. Echo Park's established residential character, strong connectivity, and continued investment have contributed to its enduring appeal among residents, owner-users, and developers alike. With its vacant status, existing 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, four parking spaces, and substantial development potential, 1674 Morton Ave offers a compelling opportunity to acquire a versatile residential asset with significant long-term upside. The property's desirable Echo Park location, functional existing improvements, underlying land value, and development potential position it as a unique opportunity for an owner-user, investor, or developer seeking to capitalize on one of Los Angeles' most dynamic residential neighborhoods.
